One of my favorite bluegrass/Americana songs. It reminds me of my Great-Grandfather x3 (Confederate), My Great-Grandfather x3 and my Great-Uncle x2 (Union) and their hardships during the Civil War.
Enjoy! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yqp_rn9rdTw |

My great great Uncle was in Andersonville and Danville both! I'll have to look the history up, but he inducted into service with the GAR weighing in at about 200 lb, and when finally liberated he weighed 68. Nothing but a bag of bones. |

She found his discharge papers while looking through piles of 'stuff' left by her mother. |

She found his discharge papers while looking through piles of 'stuff' left by her mother. The best we can tell, most of my ancestors were still in Europe during the Civil War ... except possibly a few Cherokees (still undetermined) Some of my wife's ancestors here, including the Cherokees, date back to just after the Revolutionary War. All of my grandparents and great uncles and aunts, as far as I know, were Europeans whose families arrived between 1880 and 1920. My parents and my uncles were born in Boston and Philly. Some of my maternal grandmother's people may have been down there on St George Island during the civil war but they were probably smugglers ;-) That whole area of Southern Md was a hotbed of spies, smugglers and confederate sympathizers. They were more closely aligned with Virginia than the union. They still are! |
